Question on flight 1844
 
Can someone tell me the status of the 2 cleared upgrades pax on this flight? TIA

That flight has two legs today and neither have exactly two upgrades (7 and 1).

Try using pda.continental.com and go to flight status.

I believe OP is asking for the elite status of two pax on a flight, which is not available on that site.

Nor is it available anywhere else, and for good reason. It is none of (y)our business.

I'd say higher than your (or whomever you are posting this question on behalf of)'s status.

Was curious as I fly primarily DL, I am platinum on CO, was on a Y fare and not sure the exact clearance priority at the gate with CO. I wouldn't think SXM would be a heavy elite route and it seemed to be a couple upgraded together, also the agent in the lounge when looking up my Rez and standby position made a face as if not all was right...

Perhaps they used instruments? SXM isn't an elite-heavy flight, but it sure is a honeymoon/major vacation destination, where people will pay for upgrades.

What number were you on the u/g list?

Also, FWIW, the southbound flight was 5 cleared 2 days ago and went up to 7 today. The northbound flight had only 1 cleared 2 days ago and it was still that way (with 1 open seat up front) until this morning.

It is probably worth citing routes these days more than ever as that flight number has, over the past week, operated BOS-IAH, EWR-SXM and SXM-EWR and it will be BOS-IAH-CLE tomorrow. @:-)

I was standby on a mileage upgrade. I was informed that if it doesn't clear before T-24 it is automatically redeposited and the only upgrades at gate would be complementary elite?

To add it was the southbound EWR-SXM flight.

This is incorrect. Your miles-based upgrade is supposed to be transferred to the airport and you are ahead of any EUA folks if it gets to the gate for the upgrades. I am not certain how it is handled between T-24 and the gate as EUAs can be processed in that window but the miles-based upgrade on the list would likely not be as that list is handled only at the gate.

As for that flight in general, it was booked full with 5 upgrades 2 days ago and still like that yesterday. Apparently two of those customers chose not to fly as there were 7 cleared as of this morning and it was still booked full.

FWIW...The OP posts above that it was for his/her own upgrade, not someone else.

Thanks

No, dbaker was correct - it appears the OP wanted to know what the status of the pax that cleared was, not him - which presumably he would know ;)

I do stand corrected, my apologies...I do not personally worry about other PAX status/fare, it is what it is especially after T-24.
